The Constitutional Monarchy of Beta Cyndriel is a gargantuan, cultured nation, renowned for its compulsory military service, frequent executions, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic, devout population of 12.712 billion Cyndredis love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

The enormous, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Environment, and Welfare. The average income tax rate is 72.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Beta Cyndrielian economy, worth 576 trillion leis a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving and Furniture Restoration. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 45,375 leis, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

There is an abondance of ackawi and zartschmelzend in every Beta Cyndrielian grocery store, children dream of becoming physicians and physicists, in distant lands the nation is known as a lovely place that was even better in the good old days, and Cyndredis seem to be catching more chills. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Beta Cyndriel's national animal is the Ram, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
